Advantages Disadvantages

Replacing human operators in tedious tasks. Technology limits

Replacing humans in tasks that should be done unpredictable development costs

in dangerous environment (i.e. fire, space,

volcanoes, nuclear facilities, underwater, etc.)

Making task that are beyond the human Initial cost is relatively high

capabilities such as handling too heavy loads,

too large objects, too hot or too cold substances

or the requirement to make things too fast or

too slow.
